Came here for dinner as it was highly recommended. Didn't know what to expect so had an open mind.
We came in a Tuesday night and the restaurant was busy. There was a nice buzz but not overly rowdy. Very interesting menu and we tried a bunch of dishes. All were good but none really stood out with that WOW factor. Drinks were well made and creative. The only other issue was service was slow. Other than that, you won't be upset coming here.

If I could give 10/5 stars I would!!! My husband booked the chefs table for our wedding anniversary and honestly I didn’t know what to expect… I’m a somewhat picky eater with a shellfish allergy so I was nervous about an unknown menu but when I tell you that EVERY. DAMN. DISH. Was 10000% beyond…… I mean it. I tried things I had never eaten because it looked so beautiful and the staff described each item so perfectly and deliciously and I am so grateful I did because OH MY GOD does this team know what they’re doing. Not only did the food taste incredibly fresh and full of flavor, it was complex in its layers of flavor and textures in the best ways. All of the 6 courses we had was one phenomenal experience after the other but the star of our dinner was the butterflied Branzino. While I’ve had delicious Branzino here in Atlanta and across the county, the way K&D served the fish with the most perfect flavors and crispy skin was by far my favorite. The entire staff made us feel warm, welcome, and celebrated on our special night. If you are looking for a beyond special tasting experience, with a wine pairing, please request Nick. He made the PERFECT wine selections for each course. We seriously cannot thank or recommend King & Duke enough for being such an incredibly delicious staple in Atlanta. If you haven’t gone yet- GO!!
King + Duke is all that. Yup, ALL that. Might move to Atlanta just to come here more often. Seriously. Vibe: great. Food: fantastic. Service: even better. Decor: amazing - classic, classy, western & hearthy (think fire and smoke) without drifting too much into the camping & antlers space. Did I mention the food was great? High calibre cooking, yet accessible. No really, an amazing experience: go, you won’t be sorry
My husband & I had an amazing Valentines Day at King + Duke♥️ From the ambiance, the food, to our server everything was incredible! They also offer valet parking which was seamless. We had an amazing fine dining experience here & will definitely be back! Highly recommend 10/10
Great drinks, excellent food, welcoming staff! I came with a party of 6 and although the waitress had quite a few large parties, she apologized whenever she felt there was a delay (although we didn't feel as though we were waiting longer than we should). Food was great -- I loved the chicken it was the juiciest I've had a restaurant, so good! Any my friends loooovved the beef dripping fries and burger. I don't eat beef nor pork so couldn't partake. 🙂 After dinner, the waitress brought out a dessert to share as a thank you for your patience gift. We had a great experience and will definitely add this to our list of places to return in the future.
This place is unreal. Everything about King + Duke tastes perfect, is perfect, or feels perfect. My girlfriend and I both had burgers — she likes it more cooked than I do, but they were both juicy and tasty. We loved the beef dripping fries too. The drinks were also incredible. I had the Daisy Buchanan with extra pepper and it was balanced perfectly.
… I haven’t mentioned the best part yet though! We loved the staff. Our waiter was one of our favorite waiters ever. He helped us with the menu, gave us recommendations, and made us laugh! 11/10!
It starts off with a great warm house bread with butter. The service was good and quick, I had the salmon with asparagus and they were both outstanding. If you are looking for a restaurant with great atmosphere and healthy options in Atlanta this is a great choice.
We came here for Valentine’s dinner. Our server (Jennifer) was nice and kind. The food was good in general but the appetizers were a bit off. We had a great time here.

The physical space is beautiful and well designed. The food is excellent and would compete well in any major city. The service keeps me from giving this a full five stars.
The design of this place is smart and tasteful. There's some outdoor seating and an outdoor bar. Lots of natural light. Unlike many places in Atlanta, the physical plant isn't ostentatious or pretentious. The tables are very small and a little close to each other, creating a noisy ambiance. I was sitting with my back towards another table about 2-3 feet away and found myself occasionally leaning towards my guests to hear them.
I'm a big fan of good bread - you know, the kind that's worth the carbs - and when a restaurant can invest in the care and attention to serving good bread, it's an encouraging omen. This place had really good bread to start the meal. The butter was soft at room temperature.
The octopus was above average but nothing special. The bone marrow was good according to my friend. The croquettes were better than most places - I'm not really a fan of croquettes but these were pretty good. The sea bass was excellent. My friends seem pleased with the dessert.
The wine was interesting. They had a seemingly good selection, but for some reason my Sauvignon Blanc was sweet. If you know your wines, you're probably confused. I was too. I wondered if they brought me the wrong glass. I ended the night with a 12-year Japanese whiskey served with a block ice.
Our waiter was a nice guy and made an effort. His timing was a little off at the beginning (seemed impatient) but overall he was excellent. The reason I am not giving this five stars is that the evening started with poor service and that was the first topic of conversation at my dinner table. For example, when I arrived at the restaurant the guy at the front desk basically said "yeah they're over there. Just keep walking and you'll see them." When I sat down at a table, my friends also commented about how short and uninterested he was in their table request when they arrived. Tonight, the restaurant was busy but not anywhere near sold out. They were plenty of tables.
I look forward to coming back and trying out the outdoor space. I think if management could elevate their service level this could be one of the best restaurants in Atlanta at this price point.

If at all possible get a table with July. Great knowledgeable, friendly and attentive server.
Great for small groups, business lunch or dinner and even dates. Highly recommend reservations for dinner service.
Food quality: 4.5
Customer & Food Service: 5
Atmosphere: 5
Recommended by my financial consultant, as “consistently good food and service.” Enough said.
As a fine dining experience, very good dare I say in between a very satisfactory to excellent. For a busy Saturday night, at dinner rush, great service and food!
Appetizer: Octopus tiny portions but a great amuse-bouche, wish there were more pieces, excellently seasoned and grilled to perfection not too chewy, mini potatoes nice balance.
Entrees:
The vichyssoise was creamy and light with the flavors of a perfectly puréed onions and leeks with a hint of basil. The flounder was cooked perfectly crispy on the outside and flaky and falling apart beautifully on the inside, garnished with the caramelized garlic which was not overpowering one bit and fresh basil leaves on the side it was an entree worth waiting for.
The side of roasted artichokes were beautifully steam blissed and roasted, had a great chargrilled taste a bit burnt but nevertheless not everything can be perfection green olives while aesthetically pleasing were not the best salty complement to a savory artichoke, lemon rind added flavor but not enough zest.
Steak was medium rare cooked, excellent cut and less is more seasoning. Garnished well and complemented the meat.
Side of chargrilled Broccoli stems were perfectly blanched and grilled and seasoned.
Dessert: what is there to say except light, not overly creamy and delicious definitely worth the guilty pleasure. Who knew banana pudding could be light and not guilty, loved the crumbles of bread and the homemade whipped cream (to kill for).
We’ll be back!
